It’s what drove me to wrestling torrents, The WWE network was great, it had chapters, and the stuff was easy to find, then they sold it off to Peacock and stuff is hard to find, they have no chapters, they censored some of the old controversial stuff, it’s just a lesser experience than the old Network. I’m very interested to see how it’s integrated into Netflix, and if they move the US to Netflix when the Peacock deal is over.
I have a junk gmail box that I use with no real info on it, I linked it then immediately unlinked it, and that seems to have worked. So I guess if you wanted to do this portion but not give them access you could make a Gmail you will never use just to link then unlink.
There’s conflicting messaging on it, some on Steam claim when they implement it that mods quit working, and others claim that just isn’t true… I don’t know as I’m not paying what Capcom wants for some of their games, but I know that it messed up compatibility with the Steam Deck when they added it to Monster Hunters in January.
If I owned one of the games that might get it, I would look into keeping a second copy that isn’t updated though. Or turn off auto-updates in Steam.
It’s worse than that, they’ve been going through their back catalog and adding Enigma Protector DRM to games because the company doesn’t like mods saying they are no different than cheating and some are morally offensive.
Well if that argument works out for the studios, Oneida better get ready because I’ll be seeing them in court. After all, they made the spoons that I used to eat the ice cream that made me fat.
Assassin’s Creed Origins, I picked up the 3 pack last year of Origins, Valhalla, and Odyssey on sale, and am just having the time to sit down to play Origins.
Introducing paid mods is something I don’t support but I’m interested to see what things look like when it launches on Starfield.
That aside, I hope they take the empty world complaints to heart, if they can make the world more full I am willing to return to the UC Shitcan and fight for my citizenship.
I’ve got over 100 hours in and all the trophies, nothing left in the base game for me, I’m not doing 10 playthroughs with 1 character though.
The logo bothers me with the number behind GTA, most other games it was GTA with the name over or next to the words. The only thing I am upset about is that it’s coming in 2025, I was hoping for the back half of 2024. Of course, this is also GTA, I think the first trailer for GTA V was in 2010 and the game finally launched for the first time in 2013. So we may not be playing this until 2026.
How’s your new playthrough going?
When it comes to Google, even if you pay them you are still the product, YouTube Premium might stop the ads on YouTube but it doesn’t stop the data collection for other Google products and partners.
All while riding a mountain climbing horse that moves slower than a wooly mammoth.
WB Discovery is still getting their cut from Westworld, Raised by Wolves, and a dozen or so others by licensing it out to The Roku Channel streaming service of all things. So those actors went from getting scraps from HBO Max to probably next to nothing from Roku. I don’t know if that’s worse than having the content completely removed or not considering Roku is like Pluto TV and airs things more like cable.
Is Wired out here taking stories from YouTubers? I swear Linus Tech Tips covered this entire thing months ago, saying basically to stick to Fire, Onn or Chromecast devices.
I only have played Fortnite because my nephew was big into it for a long time, now that he and his friends are in high school they have quit playing, I don’t know if that’s a big trend, but he tells me it is just not cool to play anymore.
The giant BR is likely Fortnite, the Battle Royale part that is the game most people know wasn’t supposed to be the big deal, what is now Save The World was supposed to be the game and BR was just going to be tacked on.
And don’t forget it’s just a rental of the game, at any time they could shut off the game or license servers because they don’t want to sell or keep that game anymore.
Now that’s not exactly what the polling data says, it says 23% plan to get the shot, while another 23% might get the shot. I’d like to think those who say they might get it will definitely get it but we know a lot of them won’t be getting the shot.
The search function is nice and really appreciated. But, from my experience, the biggest problem with Mastodon is how much work you have to put into curating a feed, something traditional social media has done some of the work for you. I mean it’s fairly simple once you get the hang of it, but a lot of people are used to having their hand held.
Also, I’m not looking to piss people off, but I think in terms of the users on the platform it is extremely progressive, and non-progressive people will be less likely to engage with that.
You thought it was going downhill before, but now that it will need to answer to money men, who want profits at all costs, it’s going to be sterilized eventually, piracy and porn are on borrowed time in my opinion.
$193mm for the Spez, this world sucks sometimes. I wonder how long the current Reddit admins stick around once the IPO goes live, I wouldn’t be surprised if they cash out and run once their options go live.
